I've been trying to get a make release to finish.  The night before
last, it failed because jade is marked as broken on alpha:

.if ${MACHINE_ARCH} == "alpha"
BROKEN=                nsgmls coredumps in static constructors
.endif

I commented out the broken line in my local cvs repo just to see what
happened.  I don't know didly about jade, but I do know that the
handbook it built last night seems to look just fine.

Also, we need to slim the GENERIC kernel down somewhat in order to get 
it to fit on a floppy:

I've already tried removing the Turbochannel machines from the install 
floppy, but that doesn't seem to be enough.  The top 10 remaining
files are:
